Abstract
A holder for detachably mounting a receptacle, such as a paint can, to a ladder has a generally L-shaped body having a foot portion and a back portion. The back portion is connected to a U-shaped curved portion and extension portion which form a hook for attaching the holder to a first rung of the ladder. The foot portion is connected to a front portion and rests on a second rung beneath the first rung of the ladder. A pivotable restraint member is attached to the back portion. This restraint member encloses the receptacle when it is resting on the foot portion in order to hold the receptacle on the holder. This holder can easily and quickly be mounted to the ladder. A top opening in the receptacle is easily accessed when using the holder. The restraint member is pivotable so that the holder can fold flat for transport and storage.
